- 1022: Homosexuality
- ... of the rights afforded heterosexual couples. The idea of coming out of the ‘closet’ has moved to the forefront of homosexual individuals when it used to be the exception.

- 1025: American Democracy
- American Democracy The American democracy is one of the most peaceful kinds of government in the world although it is a long way from utopia. The democracy in which we live has many strengths and weaknesses. Neither strengths or weaknesses out weigh one another, but it is necessary to have both due to the varying definitions. A democracy is a government that is run by the people. The politicians that we elect to run our government are human and they are susceptible to mistakes based on their own strengths and weaknesses. The strengths and weaknesses they possess are reflected into our government but at least “ ...

- ... launched the very important Social Security Act, which provided financial aid to the old, disabled and unemployed. By now the New Dealers had introduced and stabilized the idea that the government should not only cure social crises, but to actually take action to prevent them. It was the government's responsibility to see to it that its people at least enjoyed minimum living standards, labor conditions and public welfare. Besides protecting businesses, it should also protect workers and consumers. In 1942, the Beveridge report stated that the British government should take care of the people "from the cradle to the grave", although nothing happened during the war to relief the poor in Britain.
